Area guide · Kent
Dartford Borough Council identifies the town centre as its largest conservation area and publishes separate appraisals for places including Greenhithe and Church Hill, Wilmington. A home in one of those areas may have different planning considerations from a newer property nearby, so use the property’s exact location when discussing roof alterations.
Roofers Medway is the roofing company you contact directly. We cover Dartford as part of our service across Kent and Medway. Tell us what you have noticed; we will discuss the work with you and provide a free written quote, with no obligation to proceed.
If water appears where a rear extension meets the house, explain which roof is affected and whether it is pitched or flat. Ask for the wall flashing, roof junction and drainage to be considered together rather than assuming the whole roof needs replacement.
Discuss extension roof junctionsNote whether the problem is a gutter joint, an outlet or a downpipe and whether it happens only in heavy rain. Tell us about awkward side access or a passage shared with neighbours so inspection and repair access can be planned.

Property-specific advice
Useful points to discuss before roof repairs or replacement work is agreed. The right approach depends on your property, not just its postcode.
For a Dartford home with an extension, describe how the extension roof meets the house and where water appears. The junction, covering and rainwater route need to be considered together. A patch at the visible leak may not address the entry point.
Ask which roof areas and details are included, whether access arrangements are allowed for and what could require a further discussion after inspection. If the roof is being altered rather than repaired like for like, clarify any relevant permissions or Building Regulations requirements.
Compare the proposed scope, not just the total. Ask for the details that apply to your job:
These are points to clarify, not a promise that every item is included in every job. Your written quote should describe the work proposed for your home.
Our roofing services
Choose a service to understand the work, or describe your roof in your own words when requesting a quote.
Tell us about leaks, slipped tiles, damaged slates, ridge lines or flashing. Water can travel before it becomes visible indoors, so the position of a damp patch alone is not a diagnosis. We discuss the symptoms and the next inspection steps with you.
If you are considering renewal, discuss the existing covering, the proposed materials and the extent of the work. Ask what is included in the written quote, what needs to be checked and whether any permissions or Building Regulations requirements apply.
For an extension, garage or outbuilding, describe the roof’s use, its junction with the house and any pooling water or leaks. Repair or replacement depends on the existing system and condition; a suitable approach needs a property-specific assessment.
For sudden damage or an active leak, keep clear of the roof and anything that could fall. Tell our team what has happened from a safe location. Availability must be confirmed directly; for immediate danger, contact the appropriate emergency service.
Overflowing gutters, leaking joints and loose downpipes can affect how water leaves the roof. Describe where water escapes, whether it happens in heavy rain and any visible damage to fascias, soffits or nearby walls.
Ask about deteriorating pointing, chimney masonry and flashing at the roof junction. Describe loose material or leaks from a safe position. Inspection is needed to distinguish a masonry issue from a problem with the adjoining roof covering or flashing.
Your questions, answered
Start with Dartford Borough Council’s appraisal list below. It has separate documents for the town centre, Greenhithe and Church Hill, Wilmington, among others. Confirm your property’s designation and any controls with the council before altering the roof.
Sometimes a local repair is appropriate, but that depends on the coverings and junction condition. Ask for an inspection-led explanation of the cause and whether repair or renewal is recommended, with the proposed scope set out in writing.
Contact Roofers Medway directly with your town or postcode, the roof issue or planned work, and any access details. We offer free written quotes and cover all of Kent and Medway. You do not need to diagnose the fault; photographs should only be taken from a safe position.
Dartford Borough Council publishes separate appraisals for Greenhithe and Church Hill, Wilmington, as well as guidance for its town-centre conservation area. Check your full address against the council's current maps; a guide for one conservation area should not be applied to every Dartford home.
Not on that information alone. Tell us whether each roof is flat or pitched, where the extension meets the house and where water appears indoors. Inspection can establish whether the junction, one covering or another detail needs attention; ask for the recommended scope in writing.
